I'm definately feeling the effects of kickboxing yesterday. My legs were gone. Got through the workout with BBK's in the land of hills though, it may not have been fast, but I got through it! We started out with a good 3 plus mile warm-up that I kept 9-9:30 mm, then we did a 4 mile tempo run with who knows how many hills - I was trying not to count. I had my best miles there 8:17-8:40, I swear my effort felt a lot more than that! Then I did a few more just to finish up to my goal for the day, had a wonderful run and chat with Cheryl and Lisa this morning. The rest of the group was doing their own thing because of Boston. My AP for the entire run was 8:59 - hey, don't laugh it was under 9 :)
Afterward I came home and hit the tub (I can't wait until I get to come and I am WARM), I was so tired I fell asleep for about 30 mintues. I've NEVER done that before, I always thought it was weird that people could fall asleep in the tub. After a quick shower and pulling the kids out of bed to get to school, I was off to yoga. Oh, I loved yoga this morning!! I've needed that deep stretch and relaxation all week. Now, I'm off and ready for the day...if only it would warm up and really be spring!
I'm stealing Kelli's blogging today. I heard a song on the radio that I had never heard before on my way to running group and I loved it! It really hit home for me today (its long, but good):
I can almost see it.
that dream I'm dreaming, but
there's a voice inside of my head, tellin'
you'll never reach it
every step I'm takin'
every move I make
feels lost with no direction,
my faith is shakin'
but I gotta keep tryin'
gotta keep my head held high
There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
always gonna be an uphill battle
sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
ain't about how fast I get there
ain't about what's waitin' on the other side
it's the climb
The struggles I'm facing
the chances I'm taking
sometimes they knock me down, but
no I'm not breaking
I may not know where, but
these are the moments that
I'm gonna remember most
I've just gotta keep goin', and
I gotta be strong
just keep pushing on, 'cuz
There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
always gonna be an uphill battle
sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
ain't about how fast I get there
ain't about what's waitin' on the other side
it's the climb
Keep on movin'
keep climbin'
keep faith baby
It's all about, it's all about
the climb
keep the faith, keep your faith, woah
(okay, side note and disclaimer - I had no idea this was by Miley Cyrus until I searched for the lyrics. Just the other day I was saying how I thought she was overrated - open mouth, insert foot!) |
